Learning Disabilities, Autism and Neurodivergence Bill

People with learning disabilities and neurodivergent people are unique individuals who, like all of us, have potential to develop, skills to offer, and vibrant lives to lead connected to their families and communities.

They may think differently and see and experience the world differently. This shouldn’t cause them to be marginalised, stigmatised, disadvantaged or excluded.

By better protecting, respecting and championing the rights of people with learning disabilities and neurodivergent people, all of Scotland benefits.

This consultation on seeks the views of everyone on how we can do this. Accessible consultation events are listed on the consultation page.

Deadline for responses is 21 April 2024.

Scottish Commission for People with Learning Disabilities has produced a short film on how to respond to the consultation.
